Metabolism Case Reports website

BRISTOL, 3 July 2013 – Bioscientifica, the publishing arm of the
Society for Endocrinology, is pleased to announce the launch of its
new Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports website, which
is now live.

Unique in its proposition, Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case

endorsed by leading international societies, including the Brazilian
Society of Endocrinology & Metabolism, the British Society for
Paediatric Endocrinology & Diabetes, the Endocrine Society of
Australia, the European Childhood Obesity Group, the International
Neuroendocrine Federation, the Japan Endocrine Society, the National
Osteoporosis Society, and the Society for Endocrinology, with more to

This newly launched open access product publishes peer-reviewed case
reports which are free-to-read for everyone across the world, thereby
maximizing both visibility and readership of authors’ work.
Purposefully designed, the website will provide users with a wealth of
easily accessible information and engagement tools. With its full-text
search and sophisticated browse functionality, users will navigate
between cases with ease in order to spot trends and contradictions.

Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports has an esteemed
Editorial Board led by three Editors-in-Chief – Maralyn Druce¹
(London), Jennifer Green² (USA) and Martin Silink³ (Australia).
Commenting when it opened for submissions in March, Dr Druce said:

’The product’s sophisticated search and browse functionality will
enable practitioners to communicate findings, share knowledge and
convey medical experience efficiently and effectively. Our vision is
to be the go-to resource for practitioners in endocrinology and all
its many intersecting disciplines.'

Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports publishes case
reports across a broad scope ranging from articles reporting unusual
symptoms and novel treatments to key findings which shed new light on
the possible pathogenesis of a disease. Each case report highlights
key learning points for readers, thereby furthering both medical
education and clinical practice.
